... Republicans have nothing positive or constructive to offer. NOTHING. They get their rocks off by tearing down anything and everything that decent people build to help their neighbors and communities, and taking credit for the accomplishments of others.
They attract mean-spirited, stupid people like flies to shit, because they ARE shit. They lie incessantly because only lies can support and defend their diseased belief system, which is based on greed and malice.
They deliberately appeal to the vile, hate-filled people who invariably blame others for their own shortcomings by targeting a victim who is the polar opposite of their own character like Joe Biden and vilifying that individual without offering a nanoparticle of fact to justify their attacks.
Attacking someone, ANYONE, is what gets their lowlife "base" good and riled up, and sooner or later one of 'em will vent their inchoate resentments with violence. These are the people that ICE flags for recruitment, people devoid of conscience, who have been ruthless bullies for their entire worthless lives. The REALLY bad ones are groomed for politics; the "Empty" Greenes, the "Tugjob" Boeberts, the "Carnival" Cruzes. The list in long, indeed.
As much as I despise Republicans, I gotta say, their long game has been very effective. Over time, they have gutted education programs, because the poorly educated are easy to manipulate; they've never developed critical thinking skills, and that was by design. Keep 'em ignorant, poor, and angry, and give 'em someone to hate. They don't need a reason, just a target.
This is what we're up against. They want a fight? Let's give 'em one they'll never forget. Yes, there will be blood. But a few battle scars are better than living on your knees.
Excuse me. I gotta go punch a wall.
